The Directorate of Primary Education (DPE) in Bangladesh has issued a stern warning to government primary school teachers who are currently on a continuous work stoppage demanding fulfillment of three key demands. Despite the strike, the DPE has directed all concerned officials to ensure that the third term or annual examinations, scheduled to begin on December 1, proceed smoothly and on time. A circular signed by Director (Policy and Operation) A.K. Mohammad Shamsul Ahsan was sent to all divisional deputy directors and district primary education officers. The directive emphasized that any negligence, irregularity, or disruption in conducting the exams will result in disciplinary action as per regulations. The teachers, however, have announced their decision to boycott the examinations as part of their ongoing protest, raising concerns about potential disruptions in the academic calendar.
